Program Overview

The 4-year MEng in Biomedical Engineering is an integrated Master's program that combines professional engineering skills with the fascinating world of biological systems. Throughout your studies, you'll dive into topics like rehabilitation engineering, biomaterials, tissue engineering, genetic coding, and the design of medical technology.

  • The curriculum is shaped by cutting-edge research and taught by seasoned engineers and clinical scientists, ensuring you get plenty of hands-on experience in our top-notch laboratories. The first three years align with the BEng program, while your final year will be dedicated to specialized studies and earning your master's degree.
  • If you're looking for even more experience, we also have a 5-year MEng option that includes a placement year, giving you valuable industry exposure and professional growth. Plus, the BEng is offered in both 3- and 4-year formats, with an option for a sandwich year.

You'll engage in a variety of teaching methods, including lectures, tutorials, lab work, field trips, group projects, seminars, and self-study, making for a well-rounded educational experience.

Experiential Learning (Research, Projects, Internships etc.)

  •  5-year MEng program that features a 'sandwich' placement year in the industry. This opportunity not only gives you hands-on professional experience but also helps you make important industry connections and understand what a day in the life of a professional engineer looks like.
  • In your third year you will be doing an Individual Research Project
